This chicken tea cozy is pretty fun and eco-friendly - it's made from a recycled, felted wool sweater. This chicken is a silver grey dorking breed and is made from light gray wool with a red top and a button eye. His wing is dark orange overlaid with bright yellow, both hand stitched and embroidered. A binding of yellow checked cotton fabric goes around the bottom, and there's a bit of elastic inside to help keep the cover snug around your teapot.

Inside, the teacosy is lined in a floral cotton print, and has an insulated lining (polyester batting and reflective mylar) sandwiched in between the felt and the cotton. Felt is a great insulator, but the combination of felt and insulating material gives you maximum heat-holding ability.

The cozy is approximately 12" wide by 14" tall (31cm by 36cm) and fits a 6-8 cup teapot like that shown in the photo (teapot is not included in this listing). The cover is hand washable in cold water. I love making these completely unique chickens with some details to imitate a particular breed. Just imagine this chicken tea cozy sitting on your kitchen counter - he's guaranteed to make you smile!
